2 Corinthians 12
1 It is necessary to boast, though it is not profitable. But I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
Kâoup e heh kai hanlah meknae awmhoeh. Hateiteh, Bawipa ni vision na patue e heh bout ka dei ei nei.
2 I know a man in Messiah, fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I do not know, or whether out of the body, I do not know; God knows), such a one was caught up into the third heaven.
Hnuk lae kum hlaipali touh nah, Khrih thung kaawm e tami buet touh teh, kalvan dot thum e dawk tawm lah ao e hah ka panue. Hatnavah ahni dawk tak hoi maw, tak laipa maw tie teh ka panuek hoeh.
3 I know such a man (whether in the body, or apart from the body, I do not know; God knows),
Cathut ni a panue. Ahni teh paradis totouh tawm lah ao teh, tami ni a dei kawi hoeh e lawk, a thaithai hoeh e lawk hah a thai e hah ka panue.
4 how he was caught up into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a human to utter.
Hatnavah ahni dawk takthai hoi maw, a takthai hoi nahoehmaw tie teh ka panuek hoeh. Cathut ni a panue.
5 On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.
Hot patet e tami hah ka kâoupkhai han. Hatei, kai dawk teh, ka thayounnae hloilah kâoupkhai hane awmhoeh.
6 For if I would desire to boast, I will not be foolish; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, so that no one may think more of me than that which he sees in me, or hears from me.
Kai teh kâoup han ka ngai nakunghai, lawkkatang dueng dei hanlah ao dawkvah, ka pathu e nahoeh. Hatei, apipatet ni hai kai na hmu e hlak, kaie kamthang a thai e hlak, kai dawk na pouk payon awh hoeh nahanelah, kâoup laipalah ka o han.
7 And because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, therefore, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to pound away at me, to keep me from exalting myself.
Kai ni ka hmu e vision teh a lentoe poung dawkvah, ka kâoup hoeh nahanlah ka thung vah Setan e patoune lah kaawm e, ka tak dawk na ka ruk hanelah pâkhing hah na poe.
8 Concerning this thing, I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.
Hote reithainae dawk hoi kahlout nahanelah Bawipa koe vai thum touh ka ratoum.
9 He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness." Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Messiah may rest on me.
Hatei, Bawipa ni kaie lungmanae teh nang hanelah a khout. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaie thaonae teh thayounnae dawkvah ouk a kuep sak telah a dei. Hatdawkvah, Khrih e bahu teh kai dawkvah pou ao thai nahanelah, kai teh ka thayounnae dawkvah lunghawi laihoi hoe ka kâoupkhai han.
10 Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Messiah's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.
Hatdawkvah Khrih kecu dawk ka khang e katha ohoehnae, dudamnae, rucatnae, ka pacekpahleknae, hoi het patet e khangnae hah ka ngai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai ka tha ayoun nah bahu hoi na kawi sak.
11 I have become foolish. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for in nothing was I inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.
Kai teh tamipathu lah ka o toe. Nangmouh ni kai teh khak katek e lah na o sak awh. Atanglah kai teh nangmouh ni na oup awh hanlah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai teh banglahai kaawm hoeh nakunghai gunceinaw hlak hoe ka rahnoum hoeh.
12 Truly the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all patience, in signs and wonders and mighty works.
Atangcalah kaie guncei lah ka onae mitnoutnaw teh, kângairunae hoi thaonae hah doeh.
13 For what is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the churches, unless it is that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong.
Kai teh nangmouh hanelah hnokari lah ka o hoeh e hloilah, nangmouh koe alouke kawhmounnaw hlak hoe rahnoum nahane bangcahai ao maw. Hot patet e dawk teh na ngaithoum awh loe.
14 Look, for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I seek not what is yours, but you. For the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
Atu nangmouh koe, avai pâthumnae tho hane coungkacoe ka o. Hatei, nangmouh tarawk hanelah pouknae awmhoeh. Nangmae hnopai ka ngai e nahoeh. Namamouh doeh na ngai awh. Canaw ni manu na pa hanlah hnopai pâkhueng e na hoeh. Manu na pa ni doeh canaw hanlah pâkhueng e lah ao.
15 I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?
Kai ni nangmae lungthin muitha hanlah lunghawicalah hoi kama e hno hah ka hno teh kama e tak hai abuemlah ka hno han. Namamouh dawk kai ni lungpatawnae kampung pawiteh, nangmouh ni kai dawk lungpatawnae a kamyawt han maw.
16 But be it so, I did not myself burden you. But, being crafty, I caught you with deception.
Kai teh nangmouh hanlah hnokari lah kaawm ei nakunghai, arulahoi nangmouh koehoi a dâw toe na tet awh pawiteh,
17 Did I take advantage of you by anyone of them whom I have sent to you?
arulahoi nangmouh koe tami ka patoun e naw koehoi nangmae hno hah ouk ka la boimaw.
18 I exhorted Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus take any advantage of you? Did not we walk in the same spirit? Did not we walk in the same steps?
Kai ni Titu hah nangmouh koe a tho hanelah ka hroecoe nah, ahni hoi cungtalah alouke hmaunawngha buet touh ka patoun. Titu ni nangmouh koe dumyennae lahoi nangmae hno a la maw. Kaimouh teh lungkânging lahoi thaw ka tawk awh hoeh maw. Lam buet touh dawk ka dawn awh hoeh maw.
19 Have you been thinking all this time that we have been defending ourselves before you? In the sight of God we speak in Messiah; and all things, beloved, are for your edifying.
Kaimanaw ni nangmouh hmalah mahoima yon hlout nahanlah lawk a dei awh telah na pouk awh na maw. Kaimouh teh Khrih thung hoi Cathut hmalah doeh lawk ka dei awh. Pahren e ka huikonaw, ka tawk e hnonaw heh nangmouh roung nahane doeh.
20 For I am afraid that by any means, when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you do not desire; that by any means there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, riots;
Ka tho torei teh, nangmouh heh kai ni hmungaihoehenaw, kai hai nangmouh ni na hmungaihoehe lah o han tie hoi, nangmouh dawk kâyuenae, kâtânae, lungkhueknae, kâounnae, kaya saknae, tamcuek lawk deinae, kâoup kâpawinae, buet touh hoi buet touh kâtoenae lah o han tie hoi,
21 that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness and sexual immorality and lustfulness which they committed.
yampa vah yon awh teh kamhnawngnae, kamsoumhoehe napui tongpa yonnae, hounlounnae sakpayon teh, sahnin ditouh pankângai hoeh naw kecu dawk cingou awh teh, nangmouh hmalah Cathut ni kai hah na ka rahnoum sak han tie hah tâsuenae ao.
